1. Intro to The Art of Vegan Cake Baking
Including good and readily available vegan baking substitutes for staple ingredients (egg and milk), as well fat substitutes and vegan chocolate. Tips for getting a light and fluffy sponge.
2. Mixing the Chocolate Cake Ingredients
A vital step in the baking process that can sometimes be rushed, and when done incorrectly this can really affect the bake. Creating a vegan ‘buttermilk’ to ensure the cake rises well, as well as melting and mixing both wet and dry ingredients.
3. Baking the Chocolate Cake in the Oven
Making sure the cake is baked thoroughly and avoiding common pitfalls at this stage in the process.
4. Mixing the Lemon and Blueberry Cake Ingredients
To get the best consistency for a perfect vegan sponge.
5. Adding the Blueberries and Baking the Cake in the Oven
Ensuring you get an even spread of blueberries throughout the sponge without changing the sponge colour.
6. Making Vegan 'Buttercreams' and Ganache
Making 2 different vegan 'buttercreams' one which can be easily adapted to make other flavours – our vegan coconut 'buttercream' recipe (used in our Chocolate and Coconut cake), and our vegan lemon 'buttercream' (used in our Lemon and Blueberry cake). As well as a delicious vegan chocolate ganache for the outer icing (or filling).
7. Cutting the Cake into Layers
Learning how and why we layer our cakes (using 4 sponge layers), achieving perfectly even and level cake layers to get a professional finish.
8. Filling the Cake
Filling the cake with vegan 'buttercream' to get to evenly filled layers and an uniform professional finish (especially important to achieve the ‘wow’ moment when the cake is cut).
9. Making Crystallised Flowers
How to make crystallised flowers using only vegan ingredients for beautiful, simple and versatile decorations.
10. Crumb-coating and Finishing the Cake
Crumb-coating and icing the vegan Chocolate and Coconut cake with a perfectly iced smooth ganache finish, and decorating with coconut flakes. Icing the vegan Lemon and Blueberry cake with a semi-naked vegan 'buttercream' coating, and finishing with piped 'buttercream' peaks and crystallised flowers .

Hi, we're Rosalind and Becky,
your teachers and guides
to all things vegan baking!
Rosalind, Creative Director - "I founded Rosalind Miller Cakes because of my love of art and design, as well as cake of course! I was an artist and a lecturer at London's Central Saint Martin's College of Art and Design for many years before turning my hand to cake. I wanted to create cakes that were centre-pieces in their own right - in other words, edible works of art.
The taste of the cake has always been just as important as the design, and we take pride in our recipes and ingredients. My daughter and Managing Director of Rosalind Miller Cakes, Yasmine, has been vegan for 2 years, and has been instrumental in the development of our vegan recipes. In her words, they're the best vegan cakes she's ever tasted!"
Becky, Production Manager and Senior Teacher - "I've been a professional cake maker and baker since 2015 after studying Decorative Arts. I've always loved being creative and making others happy by baking treats for them. Before joining Rosalind Miller Cakes, I worked in a variety of different bakeries learning different skills, and since joining I discovered my passion for teaching. Unsurprisingly I have a HUGE sweet tooth (definitely a job requirement), and fun fact, I'm definitely a buttercream gal (although since working here fondant icing and I are now good pals!)"
